Help 

i have the following:


RedHat 7.1 up2date with kernel 2.4.9-12


[root@fglab /root]# /etc/init.d/snortd restart
Stopping snort:                                            [FAILED]
Starting snort: execvp: No such file or directory
                                                           [FAILED]

What rpm are you using?  What are the contents of your snortd?



does
/usr/sbin/snort -A fast -b -l /var/log/snort -d \
             -i $INTERFACE -c /etc/snort/snort.conf

work?

( same line as snortd but with the -D removed so it won't go
daemonizing )

try strace -f snortd start if all else fails

ok what do i need to upgrade/change/add ?



[user@fglab snort-1.8.2]$ grep -r execvp *


ChangeLog:        * Added execvp option for SIGHUP restart code
snort.c:        execvp(progname, progargs);





Thank you 

Madhav
